Understaffed and lots of petty things spoilt a really beautiful hotel. Charges for pool towels and water in the room. Refusing an extra coffee at breakfast and some unfriendly staff members (some Lovely too). Wonderful pool area short work to the beautiful town. My friend had paid in advance and the hotel tried to take an extra deposit before arrival then again tried to take full payment on check out. Such a shame as so many good points to the hotel and would be very easy to make it feel more luxury and not be spoilt by petty things and irritated staff. Aware English people are generally annoying to the rest of Europe and maybe this was an issue which I can understand

We had a room overlooking the ocean and could not have been more pleased! The sunrise view every morning was amazing! Our room was immaculate and spacious... we had a junior suite. No complaints. It had an extra single bed, so it would have been a good family room, too. The bathroom was also spacious and had a whirlpool as well as bathrobes and slippers. The hotel itself is located beween a busy street in the front and train tracks behind it. When the windows were closed, we hardly noticed any noise. Breakfast was delicious and there was plenty to choose from. I am vegetarian and had no problems finding enough to eat. I really enjoyed the scrambled eggs, the fresh fruit, tomatoes and cucumber and Sicilian sweet specialties. And pizza. :) The view from the breakfast room was also towards the ocean. Was beautiful. The Aquadelferro restaurant in the hotel... I can really recommend it for dinner. I never had a better tasting pizza from any other Italian restaurant. The dough is soooooo delicious and I ate the "Il Tocco" as a vegetarian choice. There are limited free parking spaces at the hotel, so first come first serve. But just across the street where the hotel entrance is located is a parking lot (for customers of the restaurant within the hotel) with plenty of spaces. Also free of charge. We simply parked there. Would we stay here again if we came back to this area of Sicily? Most definitely! We really enjoyed our stay. :D

Views at the property were amazing, staff were generally pretty friendly with the exception of a couple. In terms of cleanliness everywhere was spotless. We would have liked a bigger pool and the food at the restaurant for breakfast and dinner was just ok. Bed was super comfy

The most expensive and the worst (by far) hotel we stayed in Sicily. Arrived late after a long day on the road. Got probably one of their worst rooms, in an almost empty hotel, in a dark corner with a claustrophobic feel. Woke up super congested, it turns out the bathroom has a strong mold smell. There is no step to the shower cabin, and all the water leaking on the floor did it’s damage over time. We were moved to an equal size room with a properly designed shower cabin, without the mold problem and with more open views. While an almost empty hotel in off-season would put their guests in the worst rooms defies logic, especially given their VIP, free upgrades protocols. Breakfast was also the worst we experienced in Sicily, stale Costc-llike muffins. In all the other places we stayed in Sicily there was a cornucopia of delicious crostadas, eggs etc. The freshly squeezed orange juice was nice but we had that everywhere. Had to work for part of the day and chose a hotel with presumably a good internet connection. The problem is that it requires to reconnect your devices each time after they went dormant which can cause problems with uploads and downloads.

Everyone was SOOO nice! breakfast is GREAt staff are amazing restaurant for dinner was world class views and pool outstanding just loved this stay. They lent me a phone charger and let me check in early, they are just so nice. The bottled water in the fridge isnt free tho and I didnt realize so just be aware :) I did go buy a fluffy pillow as they are all flat and hard and I get migraines so am ridiculously picky, not their fault but if anyone else suffers as I do, bring something to soften the head.

The staff was exceptionally kind and helpful. The beds were a bit hard; but, otherwise the rooms were comfortable and clean. We quickly discovered Catania was not the trip for us (too big, too much traffic, too many people). The staff was quick to advise a wonderful drive to Mt. Etna. It was a fabulous experience overall!

This is a lovely small hotel in an interesting area. Clean and well organised. The staff are friendly and helpful without being pushy. It has a lovely pool area and a good restaurant. Acireale is about 15 minutes slow stroll away, uphill there and downhill back to the hotel. The town is authentically Sicilian and most of the holidaymakers there are Italian. We had a lovely week there in August.

Claimed to have beach access but wasn’t yet open for the season. They gave us a 30% discount for one of our 3 nights as compensation.

We stayed 14 days and took day trips by car from Acireale. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful recommending places and restaurants to visit. It was a slight uphill walk into the center of Acireale but after two weeks of evaluating, we would stay there again rather than in the center. Acireale is a great place to visit. Everyone there was super friendly and helpful.

The staff were pleasant.View from room over shabby car park and flats (sea view limited) was a bit disappointing but we were only there for one night so not important.The loung area was attractive with views over the sea. The dining room was pleasant with sea views. The waiter brought out the fish to show us what we were considering ordering. The whole meal was delicious. It seemed popular with Sicilian people.The swimming pool was well maintained.The entrance to the hotel was in need of better signs and directions to Reception. Broken venetian blinds in Reception gave the hotel a slightly run down look.

We wanted an easy-access, quiet hotel with a med view for our planned day-trip to Etna, and that is exactly what we found here. The staff were friendly and capable and welcomed speaking to us in English. The restaurant was comfortable and the service was efficient and friendly. The menu was a real challenge to a vegetarian and gluten-free diet, but you could choose from almost every kind of meat you can think of.

This is a nice hotel, where reception staff are friendly and do generally speak good English. Rooms are clean and very comfortable. Outside much is made in some reviews about the railway and the main road, there are a maximum of 4 trains an hour passing the hotel and you soon get used to it, the road is below the level of the hotel and again causes little issue save the fact that the table and chairs outside most rooms have the road in your eyeline when looking out to sea. Dining at the hotel is an okay experience, breakfast offers you a good choice from a buffet set up and in the evening food is fine although the staff seem pretty disorganised, and if like me your Italian is limited discussing food is a challenge, but I have to accept we are visiting their country. Acireale is not the most picturess town on the island but seems a fair location to explore the east coast of the island, you can get to some of the coastal towns by train using the railway, the station is around 15 minutes walk away, but as I said trains are infrequent, one an hour in each direction through the middle of the day

Saw reviews that commented about the road, the train line and lack of sun beds and bar staff. We are pretty experienced and discerning travellers... the trains were infrequent and took seconds to pass, the road is way below the hotel and quiet at night. We were out of season perhaps and so had no troubles with sun bed availability and had no problem getting a drink... the room was comfortable... if only it had a kettle, the balcony was tight and had only one chair... Finding the hotel is a challenge...SS114 from Catalina turn off after the Ibis Hotel and before the Alora Hotel... The car parking can be 'challenging'. The restaurant was excellent - really good. The walk into a scruffy Acireale is up a steep hill and other than a couple of bars (Cafe Cipriai for example) is probably not worth it. There is an excellent restaurant 800 metres away in Santa Caterena itself (next to the church). And the challenging walk to La Scalar down the steep staircase is definitely worth it. But also drive south to the next two harbour towns for great fish
